I hope this is a joke... But in case you're serious, a somewhat recent processor (if it's quad core it's come out at least in the past couple of years) overclocked from 1.8 to 2 is going to yield somewhat of a performance increase. There's no disputing that. However, a P4 Celeron (which is NOT overclockable with his current mobo) is not going to be noticeably faster even if he brought it to 4 ghz, since the Celeron is a crippled P4, and the P4 is grossly outdated by today's standards. This thread isn't about whether or not overclocking does anything (it obviously does), it's whether a laymen can install a liquid nitrogen cooling system (which the answer is no, someone without any experience or knowledge most likely can't). I mean, come one, he's asking how to build a computer. How the hell is he going to install a custom liquid nitrogen system?

That's like me saying "How can I custom fabricate a turbo for my naturally aspirated car and install it?" and then following that question up by asking "How do I change my oil?"

oh thanks, I thought this was a general statement, do you think I can personally overclock to a higher speed ?

But high clock speed are not available on the new processor!

then how can we do our work @ high clock speed!

please say me the way to get high clock speed!

as of now i would not think of such a thing .. first of all with all the new advents in technology now ..with the ssd drives and new generation gpus being offered ..seems it would be a waste .. most hardware you are using right now ...unfortunately will be obsolete ..unless you really are a hardcore fan of the conventional drives

there are a whole new group of processers being tested and soon will be ready for deployment ... looks like the cpu will need to catch up way i see it...

It depends on your cooling setup. If you have the stock heatsink & fan, I wouldn't push it much further than you already have. Simply adding a decent aftermarket heatsink will allow you to push your CPU much further.

Don't encourage him please, LN should be used by professionals only. Not 15 year old kids who don't know what they are doing.

If he thinks he's going to jump right into LN2 cooling without even knowing how to water cool to begin with then all the power to him!

I wish him luck.

How come the threads I start don't get these many replies? Where have I gone wrong?

Well, for starters you're using question marks instead of exclamation marks!

You need to end every sentence, with an exclamation mark! And by every, I mean questions too!

Got it!

Liquid Nitrogen can probably be acquired from a university in your area.

This.

To the OP: Don't forget to buy heavy duty gloves for handling that large steel canister of liquid nitrogen; you'll thank me later.

Pfft, safety equipment isnt necessary. just suck the liquid nitrogen through a tube with your mouth, then spit it out onto the cpu.

Just like Cartman did to get semen for free in a back alley from a guy in the sea people episode of South Park!

      take your console only release and shove it. i sold my ps5 as my pc wipes the floor with it, at the point of sale i didn't envisage being ignored by one of the biggest and wealthiest developers ever because they simply can't be bothered to support a loyal user base. as i only played the single player versions, i'll be obtaining this "free" when it eventually reaches PC as an afterthought to pay for their christmas party drinks in 2029. screw me, screw you cockstar

      Apart from Early Hiccups on Windows 11 on first install on October 6th 2021 on my old Intel 10700 daily use Desktop PC at the time, used to have issue with Bluetooth suddenly no longer working and only fix back then was always another clean install--then would work for a while. Transition to 2024 when i decided to finally upgrade that system for better support for Battlefield 2042 and Battlefield 6 later on, opted for next daily use Gaming Desktop AMD Ryzen 7 7700X and Radeon 7800XT OC 16GB. No major problems at all with this desktop, OS was clean installed way back on 10/8/2025 not long after 25H2 released. Overall i've been happy with Windows 11 Pro from the start, even minor little quirks didn't sway me. Heck i even use Windows 8 and upgraded immediately upon release back then on my old HP P6-2133W Desktop, and while the specs of that machine didn't give me top notch performance--i still was able to do what i wanted to, without too many slowdowns. Windows ME i didn't use on any of my personal systems back in the day, kept those systems on 98SE til XP released, and grabbed that immediately on release date. Kept XP til Vista Released then upgraded immediately, kept Vista til Windows 7 released, then updated immediately again

      To be fair, it wasn't going anywhere. Even when Windows Phone could run Android APKs, Google didn't want any of it so it'd never work and the same thing happened with Windows. It was never about the store or it's users, it was always the developers and who they aligned to.
